New Public Management à la française: The case of Regional Hospital Agencies

Etienne Minvielle

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

In 1996, French authorities - committed to developing an innovative, decentralized style of public intervention in a country with a reputation for administrative conservatism and a historical bias toward centralization - created the Regional Hospital Agencies. The author asks whether these agencies exemplify the modernization of French public administration. A survey of all 26 such agencies indicates that they did introduce novel management practices and do, in fact, illustrate New Public Management "à la française.".
